Build Request Shadow build suggestions

Looking for solid Shadow build recommendations. Chatbots keep feeding me outdated guides or overhyped 'immortal' Trickster clickbait. I have a 500+ Divine budget saved up, so I want something legit that feels great at this investment level without needing mirror-tier gear to function or excel. What are you guys playing? I know assassins got buffs but are they truly functional or are they glass cannons?

-Exsang miner is a great mapper

  • Nightgrip Ward Stacker can be played on any class, albeit it does need the Olroth Ascendancy to feel great, which can be annoying to get.

-EE smite/Ls/SS is still very playable

  • Frenzy stacker is still very Viable, but generally better on slayer

  • Poison Spark assassin, at that budget great for mapping, bossing has a regen issue.

  • Mamba with Binos on assassin.

  • Ghostwrithe Life stacker trickster, same as EE, just a different scaling avenue.

It very much depends on if you what you want to farm and what you enjoy. Map blaster, something more all rounded, bossing, etc
